D'Andre Swift Added To Bears' Injury Report With Reported Knee Issue

Limited public detail raises questions about Chicago's rushing plans with Caleb Williams already sidelined.

Overview

  • The Bears confirmed that Swift was added to the injury report and was a non‑participant at Thursday practice with a reported knee issue.
  • Head coach Ben Johnson said Swift was still feeling effects from the Monday night game and was expected to practice on Friday, but the team will make a final availability call in the coming days.
  • If Swift is unable to play, backup Kyle Monangai is the likely lead option based on his 26‑carry, 176‑yard performance when Swift missed a game in 2025.
  • Swift signed a reported $33.75 million extension before Week 1, so any missed snaps carry on‑field and roster value implications for the Bears.
  • The next practice and the team's Friday injury report will be decisive for Week 4 plans and fantasy lineups while Chicago also copes with Caleb Williams' hamstring absence.
